With its inaugural publication in Spring of 2018, Ellipsis became Capital University’s Undergraduate Journal for Qualitative and Theoretical Studies. This journal was introduced by student Alex Mathews in order that the University might have a journal dedicated exclusively for the liberal arts. This publication is produced entirely by students of Capital University with the support of faculty and staff.
The table of contents for Volume 1 is below and the full publication can be downloaded here.
